ON THE MOUND
Erasmo started out rough, settled down to retire 9 of 11 at one point and then ended rough. The good news is, he’s improving in terms of efficiency . . .5.1 innings ~ SEVEN hits ~ FOUR earned runs ~ ONE walk ~ SEVEN strikeouts

} the bullpen of Ollie + Yoervis + Danny combined for 3.2 scoreless with another FIVE strikeouts and The Lord earned his FIFTH save in as many chances and handed Erasmo his FOURTH victory (vs ZERO losses)

AT THE PLATE
TWELVE hits and FIVE runs ~ I’ll take it! ‘specially when there are . . .
~ an TWO-rbi single (Justin)
~ TWO doubles (Kendrys and Michael M)
~ an RBI TRIPLE (Dustin) that proved to be the difference in the game
~ and TWO homers (both by Brad!) involved!

IN THE FIELD
No DP’s turned but, also another error-free game which (after that crazy series vs. the Jays) is a good thing!

Okay, getting the full view of Ackley chasing Smoak around the bases was pure comedy. Nice to see the triple to the wall in center!
